Why did @BBCWorld snub me?

September 30, 2012Lord Aymz

A while ago, at the height of the current Muslim – West conflict further exacerbated by the amateur, derogatory film concerning The Prophet Mohammad, I read an article on the BBC, my #1 source for world news and felt the need to write in with my views.

Comments: Friday prayer sermons in Egypt were alight yesterday with calls of keeping the peace in the face of this incident.

What the West fails to realize is that it is more pertinent to deal with the cause of the problem rather than the results. Yes, people are OUTRAGED at the movie, and no, the West is doing nothing about it. The West calls for an end to the RESULTS of the movie when they should be condemning the makers of the movie, in actuality, the violence is a direct result of their actions.

Upstream prevention rather than downstream correction.

Islam prohibits depiction of any of the Prophets, whether it is Abraham, Noah or even Jesus. A little respect is not too much to ask.
